Crystal Lanier Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Cady Cremation Services & Funeral Home on Jan. 4, 2024.
Our hearts are broken as we mourn the loss of Crystal Dawn Lanier. Crystal is survived by her three children, JJ Wright, Abigail (Abby) Wright and Jace Wright, her sisters Teresa Elaine Lanier (who she loving referred to as "Sister"), and husband Omar and Laura Lanier James, and husband Royce. She is also survived by the father of her children, Jared Wright and their nieces and nephews, Rickey Moore and spouse (Christina Griffiths), Matthew Lanier, Pamela Lanier, Alexis Lanier and special great nephews Rickey Moore Jr and Hunter Moore, and many other nieces and nephews and great nieces and nephews. Crystal was predeceased by her parents, Donald Edward Lanier and Carole Frost Lanier.
Crystal had a sweet and generous heart, maybe a heart too easily hurt and broken. Life was hard for her, but she loved deeply. Her children were precious to her as was her sister Teresa who she looked to for a safe place to rest her head and heart. Crystal had a sweet voice that reminded you of the vulnerable little girl that never really went away.
We are grateful for the time, laughter and love shared with Crystal. We warmly invite family and friends to remember her sweet spirit this Saturday, January 6th, 2024 at 1pm, at Cady Funeral Home 8418 S 222nd St Kent WA 98031
